Good to hear. Could you please open up the YouTube app and see if the search button and account icons are working as expected.

Yes!! YouTube is finally working right again!

Lane Guidance is working in Maps now. The Maps Notification banner is redesigned now too.

Can I use my apple watch with this iOS 11 beta without having to install a watchOS beta as well?

Yes, you can.

Looks to be working fine. I had no issues from YouTube. This from my iPad.

Does anybody notice that it no longer saves screen recordings in beta 2?

Saves them just fine for me, 7+.

Saves them just fine for me, 7+.

I’m also on 7+. When I tap the banner at the top and click stop it used to save a video in photos but it no longer does that. I’ll try a reboot.

Family sharing for storage plans is available, has anyone tried sharing with someone who is still on iOS 10?

When on the home screen:

Swipe down to reveal Notification Center

Swipe back up to close Notifcation Center

Then swipe up to reveal Control Center

Phone crashes every time for me (iPhone 7)

Confirmed. Nice.

A reboot fixed it.

Woah this is huge, third party apps show up as document providers on Files app!

Weird, it showed Box which I added but not Dropbox. Hmmm.

can't seem to charge my iPad mini anymore on Beta 2... any ideas?

If you use Adguard and only enable one filter it worked on beta 1. Let me see if I can find you the thread.

That seems to have worked! Thanks for taking the time to find that for me, much appreciated.

Fix: It’s possible search purchased apps in App Store again

Not sure if it’s been mentioned but erase all settings and content does nothing

Confirmed on my iPad 10.5

My Watch won't connect to my phone via Bluetooth. It won't even show up in the list of devices in the Bluetooth settings.

I'm having the same issue. My Watch is still paired according to the Watch app, but it's not listed in the Bluetooth settings and the Watch is not connected via bluetooth. My Watch is working, but it's connected to my home wifi, so it's getting everything that way.

Does anyone know a way to repair the Watch in Bluetooth without unpairing and repairing the Watch entirely?

Hardware: iPhone 7, iOS 11 DP 2 and 42mm Apple Watch Series 2, WatchOS 3.2.2.

Is the text in the Weather app huge for anyone else? It was in beta 1 as well but I thought beta 2 would fix it.

I noticed when I plug my headphones in the the Netflix app had gained a grey notification badge that pictures a pair of headphones. Additionally the Netflix app replaces the rightmost app in recently used in the dock.

Editing a photo has been moved to the top right when viewing said photo now. I don’t prefer this but I’m sure I can get used to it.

YOU LOOK LIKE LINDA EVANGELISTA.

DID YOU STONE THOSE TIGHTS?!

I don’t know if anyone has mentioned it, but I no longer have a widget for my news app on my 7 plus.

Just checked and it’s still there for me. Also using a 7 Plus.

Sadly, I’m starting to think that’s how they want the app to look.

Family sharing for storage plans is available, has anyone tried sharing with someone who is still on iOS 10?

Yes, I am using it. I enabled storage sharing on my iPad with iOS 11. My 2 family members that were still on the free storage started using it immediately. The others that were paying for storage had to opt in. They were able to do it on iOS 10 but I could not find the option in iCloud Drive settings. I found it in the Storage & iCloud usage area. They selected to use the shared storage and it told them they would downgrade their own storage plan.
